Interpreters for the conversations that matter in Japan
We provide medical, technical and business interpreting anywhere in Japan. The service was started by Christine Lee, who studied clinical medicine and did medical research at the University of Tokyo. As chief interpreter, she is responsible for its quality.
Christine looks at every request. You can ask for her by name, or let EMYSTI choose another interpreter who fits.
What we cover
The right interpreter for the setting, not just the language.
Before we take a job, we ask what will be discussed, the format, the place, what needs preparing and any confidentiality needs. Then we suggest an interpreter.
Medical
Doctor’s appointments, hospital explanations and the conversations before and after.
Medical aesthetics
Neutral interpreting for aesthetic, plastic-surgery and regenerative-medicine consultations.
Business
Meetings, negotiations, site visits and investment talks, with one contact at EMYSTI.
Technology
AI, semiconductor test, precision manufacturing, materials, energy and automotive.
Exhibitions
Booths, buyers, delegations and conversations on the show floor across Japan.
Executive & VIP
Executive meetings, delegations and multi-city trips, handled discreetly.
Three ways to book
We pick the right interpreter for each job.
After Christine looks at your request, we decide whether she, another professional interpreter or a team will do it.
We match the interpreter to the job, not just the languages.
Important interpreting needs preparation, discretion and the right background. Before we send anyone to a client, we check that they are ready and that they fit the job.
How booking worksFrom your first message to the day itself, you always know who is responsible.
Good interpreting starts before the interpreter arrives. Christine looks at every request, and EMYSTI takes care of choosing the interpreter, the quote, preparation and the day itself.
